Wasn't Hair nominated for Best Musical? I thought it was...
It lost to either Promises, Promises or 1776... I think it was 1776.
ALL great shows.

BEST PERFORMANCE BY A FEATURED ACTOR IN A MUSICAL
Michael Cavanaugh, Movin' Out
John Dossett, Gypsy
Dick Latessa, Hairspray
Corey Reynolds, Hairspray
Keith Roberts, Movin' Out
One of these just doesnt belong, one of these just aint like the rest. Hmm. Yes *I* would have put Matt Morrison in there, but even if not, I still dont get Cavanaugh's nomination in the category. I thoroughly enjoyed him but maybe he shouldve gotten a special recognition or something different than this.
I havent really been paying too much attention to the Tonys till recently so thats pretty much the only one that really bothered me. Other times when I disagreed with the winner/nominations, it was usually over a show I never got to see so I figured I just missed something.

Both were great, but I agree that MSM should have won over Jane. Her character is much more important to the plot, and she has the two best songs in the show: "Be On Your Own" and "My Husband Makes Movies". She gets my vote over Karen Akers as Best Luisa Ever!

Cavenaugh deserved it over Roberts, but both were so questionable - same with Ashley Tuttle for MOVIN OUT. And I don't feel that Dick Latessa should have won - I still think John Dossett should have.

JoeKv99 - Jerry Herman's speech when he won for "La Cage" was such a disgrace. It made me so mad!!!

For those of you who think that Jerry Herman wasn't dissing Sondheim, here is his acceptance speech:
"There has been a rumor going around the last few years that the simple, hummable showtune...was no longer welcome on Broadway. Well, this proves that it is alive and well at the Palace Theatre."
He gave Sondheim the stink eye while he was saying it, too.

I dont get it though...i saw this clip on that broadway PBS special. I dont think he was saying it to Stephen. No offence, I love Sondheim but his scores are not really simple lol. I think he was just happy. His La Cage score was an old fasioned type score, i think thats what he meant

Posted: 2/4/05 at 6:11pm
Don't get me wrong; I'm a big fan of Herman's work. I've seen this revival of "La Cage" twice. But eberybody in that room knew who he was saying that to.

IMO, Raúl deserved the Tony over Michael Cerveris. I was much more impressed with other cast members in Assassins.

Pippin lost to A Little Night Music. While it's debatable, I don't think anyone would say that the win was totally unfounded.

No, I would definitely say that A LITTLE NIGHT MUSIC rightfully won - it's a brilliant show.
As far as Raul Esparza, because I liked taboo and I like his work I would have liked to see him win, but Cerveris earned and deserved his win - he was solid and brilliant and took his role to places no one else in that cast even started to do.
